<h3>The salary of Perry if inflation is 6.5 % is $ 32617.475</h3>

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that,

Perry made $34,885 this year

The inflation rate was 6.5 percent

To find: Salary worth if inflation rate was 6.5 percent

From given,

Inflation rate = 6.5%

Therefore,

Worth of salary due to inflation = 100 % - 6.5 % = 93.5 %

Money earned in this year by Perry = $ 34, 885

Therefore,

Worth of Perry salary due to inflation = 34,885 x 93.5%

\text{Worth of Perry salary due to inflation }= 34885 \times \frac{93.5}{100}\\\\\text{Worth of Perry salary due to inflation }= 34885 \times 0.935\\\\\text{Worth of Perry salary due to inflation }= 32617.475

Thus the salary of Perry if inflation is 6.5 % is $ 32617.475

6x+8y=30

First substitute .5x in for y to get a solvable equation. You should get 6x+8(.5x)=30. Then multiply 8 times .5 to get 6x+4x=30. Then combine like terms (6x+4x) to get 10x=30 and divide both sides by 10 to get x=3. Then plug this x value (3) into the other equation (y=.5x) to find the value of y. Y=.5(3) so y=1.5. Therefore the answer is B.

What is exact the slope of the line through (-9, 6) and ( -3 ,9 )
Tatiana [17]
Slope = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
(-9,6)....x1 = -9 and y1 = 6
(-3,9)...x2 = -3 and y2 = 9
now we sub and solve
slope = (9 - 6) / (-3 - (-9) = 3 / (-3 + 9) = 3/6 = 1/2 <=
